Force android to ask for run time permission every time regardless of prior acceptance

Question

Whenever you accept a runtime permission Android remembers it for about 24 hours I think. However when testing this a big annoyance especially when I have different parts of the app that need the same permission. I want to see if the app works correctly if the user hasn't already accepted the runtime permission but I only have two devices to work with so once I've accepted I can't really see. Is there a way to forget accepted run time permissions?

No, it lasts until revoked, either by the user revoking the permission in Settings, by the user clearing data in Settings, or by the user uninstalling the app.

You can revoke the permission from the Settings app (Settings > Apps > (your app) > Permissions).
